That's the exact one I'm looking at for my Clubman.
Would it look too big on the Clubman?
Is it powder coated?

Looks NICE, especially at that price!! Very similar basket to my Rhino Rack basket that cost more than twice that.

With mine the wind noise isn't bad until you open the sunroof but gas mileage took a hit by about 2 MPG. I was getting about 24+ on the highway on road trips with it on and 26+ on ones without it.

Enjoy your extra storage!

that looks EXACTLY like yours. like exactly. the paint is like a textured powder coat.. looks rough and durable. I haven't taken it out on the road yet. Guess that's tomorrow. lets see how it works. The roof rack didnt give me any wind noise.. but i'll update tomorrow
